A question concerning books, answers appreciated greatly!

[+Zero+]

Hello reformers!! I was wondering if anyone had any suggestion on books that concern the formation of the Bible. I mean how it was formed, who put it together, who wrote the books within, and what parts of the Church were assigned to determine what was and wasn't cannon. I would appreciate prayer over the subject, as my best friend is concerned and wants to grow in faith by reading on the topics. I'm concerned for her spiritual growth, and I want to help her... just not quite sure what books are available on the topic.

Thanks for any replies, much appreciated!!!

bible.org

is not a reformed website, but it does have an interesting beginners theology program called TTP.


heres a link to its Bibliogy and Hermenuetics section which answers the topic of cannonization.

enjoy!

That info is included in the introduction to each book in my bible. It tells also of when written, by whom, for what purpose and to which people. Great info to know before beginning the book.
